I have this in my configuration:
```
     environmentVariables =     (
                 {
             enabled = ":true";
             name = "MM_GPG";
             value = "/opt/local/bin/gpg";
         }
     );
```
and it works fine to invoke the `gpg` that I have as part of MacPorts.  
Note that it *does* behave differently, if you are used to Enigmail.  
Seems like Enigmail was more permissive about trust, which took some 
getting used to, but this works fine for me (I had found that having 
MacGPG2 *and* MacPorts gpg installed on the same machine gave odd and 
unhappy results).
